One Voice

It is easy to feel aggrieved by those in power, however, does it achieve anything? No. The reason it doesn’t is because only “action” achieves anything. When did we forget this? Why do we listen to those who disrespect us, make generic assumptions about our financial status and turn others against us to deflect from their disjointed policies?


According to government figures we are a growing community and with that description we are deemed an ever increasing financial burden on our country. However, is that strictly true? Imagine, for a moment, we stopped listening to their interpretation and declared who we really are. We are becoming one of the larger voting voices and with that comes influence. We need to constructively get that knowledge out there so we get back our self respect and build a better future for all. We are not a burden we are able to contribute in a positive way and we are not here to be forgotten.


Do you agree / disagree that we need “One Voice” to achieve equal rights with the rest of those who share our country?
